Can THC Cause Blood Clots And Other Insidious Side Effects?
My friend smokes marijuana constantly & ive tried explaining to him the marijuana or the THC one can cause blood clots but he wont listen can you kind of put it into a medical term or something or give and example of a previous patient who has had a Blood Clot due to Marijuana.
You seem to want to find a side effect of marijuana regardless of whether it is actually true? Marijuana is less associated with blood clots than birth control pills or cigarettes. Perhaps if you just lie around all the time, clots are more common, but that would be the only marijuana association.
